Develop inner awareness, body scanning, emotion and thoughts scanning
The original form of yoga appeared in Hindu culture more than 5000 years ago. Master Patanjali can be called the father of all because he created traditional yoga, which was used and further shaped by several masters over the years. Thus, today yoga has many variations and forms. The different yoga systems are all based on the same principle. The methodology of yoga helps us keep our bodies and minds healthy, and can help to improve the symptoms of illnesses.

AyurvedicIt is recommended for everyone who is a beginner or has rarely had the opportunity to practice yoga, or for those who want to be sure that they have learned all the asanas and breathing exercise techniques with a good foundation and know how to use them. A series of asanas are put together according to the strength level of the asanas at the basic beginner level, especially for those who do not yet feel strong or flexible enough for more difficult yoga classes. You will learn to master the correct yoga breathing technique, as when your breathing is shallow, toxins remain in the lungs and there is not enough oxygen intake. You will observe and use abdominal, diaphragm, and chest breathing. You will also monitor bodily sensations by tuning in, and learn fast relaxation and stress management.

Another meaning is to connect and unite the individual soul and the Supreme Soul. Translated into present-day language, this can be interpreted as the fact that in today's fast-paced world, people's minds and thoughts are constantly inundated with advertisements, movies, workplace challenges, and everyday problems, or just simple worries about your children. In fact, in this hectic world, we should realise that we cannot always direct our thoughts and actions, so we are constantly being influenced and swayed. When we do yoga, our endlessly busy minds calm down, and we can more easily find our way back to the feelings that are actually important to us. As a result, our thoughts become clearer, which could enable us to make better decisions with fewer mistakes.
The second explanation that follows from this is that we may have a much better ability to hear our soul, and, in accordance with our own belief, we may be able to connect with our supreme soul, improving our faith and intuition. Neither yoga nor breathing exercises are related to any particular religion. Their proper use only has a beneficial effect on the external and internal health of the body and helps our soul.
